Official FF6: Beyond Chaos thread (randomizer)

Okay, my game is officially broken.
I cannot get the Ragnarok esper at all.
The guy in the weapon shop doesn't even give me any possible choice, He just greets me and says, "Hello, I've been waiting to give you this." and then when you hit the button to advance, it just skips making the option completely, forcing you into having the Ragnarok sword.
Please tell me how to fix this, because this isn't fair at all, and is one hell of a glitch.

Seriously, please tell me why he refuses to do anything but say right. No options, nothing.
Not a single choice. What the hell.
Is it because I found the Ragnarok already in a chest, and somehow it broke it?
Okay, so throwing the Ragnarok and then going back still breaks it forever.

IS there any game genie code for getting espers?

I can't believe I can't get the Ragnarok esper just because the Ice Dragon gave the sword to me. ERGGHHHHH.
I can't go back to a previous save.
